Hi all, I'm a new exlorer owner as of today. Is there a piece missing from my console, or is there just hole there for no apparent reason?

Also, where can I buy weatherstrip for the doors, aside from Ford? I have a small leak that I want to take care of before it gets out of hand.

kleenex box holder, eh?
 






The vertical slot is a tissue dispenser. Lift the arm rest and you can pull it out and refill it.

There is a thread on here somwhere that says where you can by the refills. I nevr bothered with mine.
 






alot of guys fab up a plate and make it a spot to put switches
 






Oh hell do I feel stupid on that one! Never would have thought of that in a million years. I'm still getting used to having a vehicle with power windows!
 






Kleenex box holder...Weird. Never heard of that before.
 






HaHa i had the same question but felt like an idiot if i asked :p: Never would have thought in a million years of a tissue dispenser
 






For the weather stripping, try any regular auto parts store (Autozone, Checkers, Advanced...) They should carry something of the sort. A lot of guys get the small Uniden CB radio and put that in the place of the kleenex holder. If mine was small enough that's where I would put it.
 






Hey rocket88 stop following me! ;) :p:


Just kidding, I am on Wistangs... I think I remember you posting a thread on there about picking an X up.





BTW, when I used to own a Gen 2 Exploder that tissue box holder made a great place to keep my "personal protection equipment".

LOL, yep that's me...I remember reading your build thread over there...your X is insane! Hope I get to see that in person someday...you ever get out to GLD?

Dont feel stupid.
Many many many people have asked the same question.

My self included.
 






On my mom's Expedition there is a holder inside the console lid. You just slip one of those flat-box style Kleenex boxes in that you get at Wal-Mart and you're set. Great for flu season.

Last year I got out there a good bit. This year I have been busy with a few builds as well as planning and soon starting the turbo on the LS. Hopefully next year I will be able to take the vehicles up there and make some good runs.
